Are you standing near any tall buildings when trying for the lock?
And be sure to have the keypad open at all times.
Also what firmware do you have,as the latest has assisted GPS which helps with connecting.

what program are you using for the GPS lock?
For best results ensure you positioning methods (settings/general/positioning) are set to all except bluetooth.
Also set the acces point in the server section and make sure the address is supl.nokia.com
